, where:
Format String | Description |
---|---|
hh | Hour, as two digits with leading zero if required |
mm | Minute, as two digits with leading zero if required |
ss | Seconds, as two digits with leading zero if required |
±xxxx | The local timezone's offset — two digits for hours and two digits for minutes (e.g. -0500 , +0800 ) |
TZ | The timezone's name (e.g. PDT , PST ) |
For example: "04:42:04 GMT+0000 (Coordinated Universal Time)".
